A Digital Deposit Token is a representation of a traditional currency deposit held at a regulated financial institution, issued as a token on a blockchain. These tokens are fully backed by corresponding fiat currency reserves, ensuring a one-to-one redemption value. They combine the programmability and efficiency of blockchain technology with the stability and regulatory oversight of conventional banking. This digital asset class aims to provide a stable medium of exchange within blockchain ecosystems.
